Pooja Hegde on Chiranjeevi, ‘Radhe Shyam’, Jr NTR and more

Pooja Hegde on Monday engaged her Twitter followers by taking questions from them. Her fans flooded her with interesting questions. 

Since she has been on a success-giving spree, with ‘Most Eligible Bachelor’ being the latest hit, the actress was asked about the luck factor. Answering it analytically, the ‘Maharshi’ star wrote, “Just a question… at what point does it become hard work and choosing the right scripts? Besides the fact of being blessed also. Just asking.” 

She revealed that ‘Into The Wild’ is the most disturbing movie she has ever seen. The ‘Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo’ actress got witty when a fan asked her when they can announce their relationship public. “On Raksha Bandhan day?” she quipped. 

Pooja described Jr NTR as real, while Amitabh Bachchan is her dream actor.

Asked about the Megastar of Telugu cinema, Pooja wrote, “Chiranjeevi Garu made my day today by messaging me about my performance in ‘Most Eligible Bachelor’. Inspired to work harder now.” She has acted in ‘Acharya’, which stars Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan. 

Taking stock of her journey in the film industry, Pooja wrote, “It was definitely a challenge in the start, I remember the times I didn’t have work but I feel like if you put your heart and soul in your work and work hard, it comes back to you manifold.” 

A lover of music, Pooja sees music as therapy. “Music is my best friend and my love. On my down days, I blast music and go off into the world the musician created for me. Crying helps too! Let it all out for 5 mins and then get back to work,” she said. 

It hasn’t been easily juggling Tollywood, Bollywood and Kollywood. “I sleep a little less and take flights at random hours.. all in the name of cinema. Genuinely excited about the work I’m doing and that keeps me excited.. being a workaholic helps,” Pooja wrote. 

On ‘Radhe Shyam’, she wrote, “Epic Love story. Grand, fairytale visuals.” The film is headlined by Prabhas.
